XXX's

Now I ask, how can one little letter be the bane of frustration? Today an X was not my friend and called many frogs. I think I stitched that letter three or four times. Oh, the eyes aren't what they used to be.

I heard from my stitching friend Julianne that she got my Spring exchange I sent. It is a Beth Twist design from the latest Gift of Stitching magazine. Here's my interpretation:

Julianne said it reminded her of spring, so I accomplished my goal. That's the fabric I backed it with. I wish I could master the art of bows. I used the charted threads and used an opalescent fabric that had a hint of blue violet to it. I think it was 28ct, but I don't remember.

Have one more exchange to finish tomorrow. I know how I'm going to do it too! Guess it's time to test the bed. See ya tomorrow.
